Pontius Pilate actually had the power to determine if one was to be punished within his jurisdiction of the Roman empire.
John 18
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.”
37 “You are a king, then!” said Pilate.
Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”
38 “What is truth?” retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, “I find no basis for a charge against him.
Did you notice that Pilate asks what is truth and what a great moment to hear the truth but he does not wait to hear an answer and walks away.
As for having belief and finding Jesus no one can come to Jesus unless God the Father draws them, no one.
John 6
44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them,and I will raise them up at the last day.
The Father has drawn your wife to Jesus but it is God's judgement not to have drawn you Whereu
Not my judgement not Pontius Pilate's judgement nor Charles Darwin or Charles Dickens
That is why I urge you to pray to God ask him why whereu you have found yourself lost in this position of being an atheist. God is loving ask for his help there is forgiveness in Christ no matter how far you think you have mocked or rejected God.

Actually, my wife, while being a prayerful Christian, believes that showing love for God and for Jesus is best served by loving, caring for, and supporting others which she does every day.
She also believes that at the end of the day God and Jesus's love will be shown to be so obvious that all will drawn to God and Jesus.
So if you want to really to consider yourself as a brother in Christ to my wife it is clear what you should do. Good luck.
